    Your Patient Experience

    We are a community of caring. Everything we say and do and how we say and do it is reflected in the differential patient experience you will encounter at Springfield Clinic. 

    Simply put, we care about our patients as people! 

    We all live together in the communities we serve.  We build our patient-provider relationships based on trust and communication.  We want everyone to receive the emotional and physical care they expect and deserve from your health care provider. 

    We care about your experience and rely on the voice of our patients to continually improve. Thank you for filling out surveys or our online form and giving us the opportunity to hear your feedback.

    1. Receive a text or email invite to the survey from our patient experience partner, Press Ganey.

    2. Enter your date of birth (so we know we're surveying the right person).

    3. Read the cover letter to see which visit this survey is for. (Your provider's name and visit date are both bolded.)

    If you don't receive a survey invitation, we may not have an accurate email address or mobile phone number listed in our system, so please contact our Patient Advocate Center at 217.391.7086 to update your contact information.

    We average more than 110,000 patient experience surveys collected annually. Of the 250+ of our providers who rank in the Top 10%, more than half are recognized even further as serving in the Top 1% for patient experience nationwide. Learn more and check out the full list of Top 10% providers here.

    We know your feedback is valuable, so our Patient Experience team is dedicated to reading EVERY patient comment we receive, every single week!

    When you shout-out a Springfield Clinic team member for a remarkable experience in a survey, they even have a chance to be recognized for their hard work clinic-wide! See the most recent list of our SC Celebrates recipients.

    We've also used patient feedback to improve our registration process, create online scheduling and extend our Patient Advocate Center hours, to name a few.
